You are bidding on 4 aluminum Japanese red cross medals. Please look closely at photos for condition as these are the actual medals up for auction. The hook latch is missing from one of the ribbons.All four (4) are Red Cross medals. Two (3) are regular member medals, and one (1) is a special membership medal. These can be dated to the end of WW2 -- these medals were made in silver except towards the end of WW2 when silver needed to be rationed for the war effort and they were changed to aluminum or steel for a few years.
Each medal measures approximately 1.2 inches across. The front has the symbol of the Japanese Red Cross Society with the Geneva cross. The back side has the society foundation date, Meiji Year 21, but this is not the actual date that the award was given.
